I don’t care if they stay awake, I want to end omnibus Bible sized bills full of pork and erosions of our rights being put in bills that would otherwise be in the interests of the people.

Forcing them the discomfort of having to read it out loud all by themselves should help greatly with that.

I’m looking at you former speaker of the house that said we have to pass the bill to know what’s in it.

This will incentive Congress to delegate more than they do now. Instead of line items for each major expense in a budget bill, they'll just assign X billions of dollars to Y agency to parcel out as the agency director wishes.

Yes and that will reduce pork by no longer mandating the Army to buy a specific number of tanks that are built in an important Congressman’s district when they really need money to fix a barracks.

You'd hope so, but this will probably be covered by only appointing people willing to delve out pork as directors of the agencies.
